In my photography blackness references the void. It is the surface of possibility from which all emerges and by which all is destroyed. Thinking of the foundational elements of phos-graphê, I burned lodgepole pine cones onto silver gelatin paper to better understand their catastrophic change. I then took 30 of these images and made an inverted wall of universes exploding into parallel being, each its own ground for an alternate reality coexisting alongside ours.
